On January 12th, Beijing time, after the Brazilian sports team achieved a four-game winning streak in the warm-up match, the performance of Kayo, the midfielder of the Brazilian sports team, really surprised the fans of the Chinese Super League. No wonder Shandong Taishan team could let Kayo follow the team for trial training in the summer window. The reason is that this Brazilian midfielder is very strong. When Kayo was facing the potential midfield star Yimulan in the future of the Chinese Super League, he not only exploded Yimulan but also scored two goals. When warming up against the Shenzhen Youth Team of the China League One, it was Kayo who changed the rhythm of the two teams' games. In the first half of the game between the two teams, Kayo guarded the midfield on behalf of the Brazilian sports team. Under his organization and planning, the Brazilian sports team made the Shenzhen Youth Team of the China League One completely passive and unable to fight back. In the second half of the game, the coaching staff of the Shenzhen Youth Team proposed that Kayo wear the team's No. 22 jersey to play against the Brazilian sports team on behalf of the Shenzhen Youth Team. With Kayo in the midfield, the Shenzhen Youth Team immediately changed from a defensive state to an attacking state. Under Kayo's organization, the Shenzhen Youth Team also scored a goal against the Brazilian sports team. After Kayo put on the No. 22 jersey of the Shenzhen Youth Team and turned the Shenzhen Youth Team into…

On January 12, the football world was stirred up as Russian blogger "RPL Sky" revealed that Beijing Guoan Club is set to welcome a strong forward reinforcement, none other than the Brazilian powerhouse Felipe Cardoso from the Russian Super League. This 187cm tall striker boasts unique charm on the field and a comprehensive skill set. Cardoso is a name that has left a deep impression on the Russian Super League. With his outstanding heading ability and keen sense in front of goal, he is equally adept at being an attacking force or an aerial fortress in defense. These qualities undoubtedly put pressure on the defenders in the Chinese Super League (CSL), who are known for their physical prowess. As a right-footed player, Cardoso's shooting technique is commendable. Within the penalty area, he always manages to seize fleeting opportunities, delivering high-quality shots that soar into the net. Long-range shots are his forte, and during critical moments, his powerful strikes are akin to surprise attacks on the battlefield, leaving opponents unprepared. His highlight reel during his time with Vegalta Sendai serves as a textbook of shooting techniques, showcasing his diverse scoring methods and comprehensive offensive capabilities. However, Cardoso's value extends beyond his role as a finisher; he is also a creator. His passing vision is broad, and he commands the field like a general, making timely and precise passes that hit the mark. His five assists with Vegalta Sendai demonstrate his creativity, which makes the team's offense flow seamlessly and continuously. This ability is a catalyst for Beijing Guoan's frontline attack, adding…

With the arrival of Malele to Dalian Yibenbo, the team has now secured their third foreign player. However, Dalian Yibenbo's spending spree is far from over. They have now set their sights on Mamadou, the former Beijing Guoan central defender. This latest scoop comes from a prominent online personality who had previously accurately predicted Malele's arrival. They now claim that Dalian Yibenbo's top target for a foreign central defender is Mamadou from Beijing Guoan, which seems quite likely. However, until an official announcement is made, nothing is certain, and it can only be said that there is currently contact between the two parties. The process of bringing Malele to Dalian Yibenbo was not without its twists and turns. There were rumors of him going to Shanghai Port at one point, but ultimately, Dalian Yibenbo managed to secure his signing. Therefore, securing Mamadou could also prove challenging. Mamadou is considered one of the better-performing foreign central defenders in the 2024 Chinese Super League season. In my personal opinion, Mamadou's abilities are more reliable than Engardu and superior to Beijing Guoan's new signing, Wu Shaocong. However, Beijing Guoan is looking to change their playing style this season and will no longer place their valuable foreign players in the central defensive position. The previous example of Shanghai Shenhua proves that champions cannot solely rely on defense; they must attack and keep attacking. As a newly promoted team like Dalian Yibenbo, winning the championship is incredibly difficult. They should focus on avoiding relegation first, much like last year's newly promoted teams, Shenzhen Xinpengcheng and…

Yunnan Yulong, the newly promoted team in the Chinese Super League (CSL), is expected to be a promising new force in the upcoming season. As a newcomer to the CSL, their goal for the new season is to avoid relegation. They need to adapt to the more intense competition in the CSL to have a chance to establish themselves in the league. In order to accomplish the task of avoiding relegation in the new season, Yunnan Yulong has made significant moves during the winter break and has decided to make major changes to their squad. Although the team that was promoted to the CSL performed well in the China League One, they faced difficulties in adapting to the higher level of competition in the CSL, which put them at a disadvantage and even made it challenging for them to avoid relegation. The domestic player adjustments were particularly noteworthy, with almost half of the local players being replaced. In last season's 33-man squad, as many as 17 players left due to contract expirations. Most of these players were dropped because they did not meet the tactical needs of the team, while some left to seek new opportunities for personal development. In the goalkeeper position, Yao Haoyang, the main goalkeeper from the China League One period, left the team. Instead, Ma Zhen was loaned from Shanghai Shenhua, and Geng Xiaofeng, a former national team goalkeeper whose contract expired with Chengdu Rongcheng, was brought in. Both of these players are experienced and capable goalkeepers in the CSL, and together with Yu Jianxian, who…

Another highlight of the match is the naturalized players of the Chinese men's football team. It is reported that the Chinese team plans to complete the naturalization of five foreign players within the next month, including Serginho and Little Oscar. The naturalization process of these two players has made substantial progress, and they are expected to officially wear the national team jersey before the match. Their addition will undoubtedly inject new vitality into the national team and enhance the overall strength of the team. At the same time, this match holds special significance for Wu Lei, the forward of the national team. It will be his 100th appearance for the national team, having scored 36 goals in his previous 99 matches, making him one of the most representative strikers in the history of the national team.

On January 11th, Beijing time, the Chinese Super League team Wuhan Three Towns, which is preparing for the new season, played a friendly match against the China League Two team Guizhou Zhucheng Athletic Team. The purpose of this friendly match for Wuhan Three Towns was to evaluate the abilities of young players and trial players. Additionally, since the opponent, Guizhou Zhucheng Athletic Team, had no foreign players, Wuhan Three Towns fielded an all-Chinese lineup consisting entirely of U-21 players and trial players for a full-Chinese contest. The match ended with a 1-0 victory for Wuhan Three Towns. The goal was scored by Tan Jiaye, who was loaned to Haikou Mingcheng Team last season by Wuhan Three Towns. The assist was provided by Wuhan Three Towns' U-21 player Zou Zhenxiang. After Wuhan Three Towns successfully won this friendly match, what the fans were most concerned about was not the result of the game but the well-known player Tang Shi who came to the team for trials. As a native of Hubei, Tang Shi returned to his hometown to participate in trials with the Chinese Super League team Wuhan Three Towns. His performance on the field also attracted the attention of Wuhan Three Towns fans. Although Tang Shi made an appearance in the game, he did not complete any assists or score any goals. Born in 1995, Tang Shi is no stranger to Wuhan fans, nor is he unfamiliar to Shandong fans. As one of the twin stars of Luneng's youth training in the 95 age group, he and Wei Shihao are…

Although Oscar and Bargas chose to leave as free agents, transferring to the Brazilian league and the Saudi Professional League respectively, Shanghai Port continues to strengthen its lineup in an orderly manner. After spending 300,000 euros to acquire Vital, the former No. 10 player of the Brazilian national youth team for the midfield position, they also brought Leonardo, who has scored highly in the Chinese Super League over the past two years, into their ranks. It is well known that Leonardo scores many goals, but his assist ability has always been underestimated. He is not a center forward, or rather, letting him play upfront would be very ineffective because he is not fast and does not have much dribbling ability. The most suitable configuration for Leonardo is still a center forward paired with a speedy spearhead teammate, allowing him to receive the ball at a relatively advanced midfielder or winger position. On the one hand, Leonardo likes to retreat to deeper positions to receive the ball and organize the attack. On the other hand, his small-ball wall-passing cooperation in the core area is also excellent, which may all be reasons why Shanghai Port selected him. Leonardo has a flaw in that he is unwilling to defend. Once the team loses possession, he often stands completely still, which could be a significant problem. It remains to be seen whether Muscat can help him change. Considering Wu Lei's age and injuries, as well as the new foreign midfielder Vital's defensive effectiveness possibly not being as good as Oscar's, this could weaken Shanghai…

The first game of 2025 saw Ronaldo score again and continue to lead his team to victory. After the win, Al Nassr moved up to third place, having played one more game than others, but they still trail league leaders Al Ittihad by 8 points, making it difficult to compete for the title. After the victory, Ronaldo was in good spirits and quickly made a decision. According to an official source from Al Nassr, Ronaldo is set to complete his contract renewal with the club, which is expected to be officially announced in the coming days, although the length of the new contract has not been disclosed. Ronaldo's current contract with the club is due to end in the summer of 2025. If he does not renew his contract during the winter transfer window, he will be able to negotiate a new contract with other clubs as a free agent. For Al Nassr, this would undoubtedly be a significant loss. Ronaldo has previously stated that even though it may be challenging to compete for the league title this season, he still hopes to make a strong push for the AFC Champions League title. However, with Talisca confirmed to be leaving the team, how the team strengthens itself will affect Ronaldo's signing progress. Recent reports suggest that Al Nassr is in talks with Manchester United to bring in Casemiro and is willing to offer him a weekly salary contract worth up to 650,000 pounds. It is reported that Ronaldo is currently persuading his former Real Madrid teammate to join Al Nassr…

The Chinese Super League teams have already begun preparations for the new season, with Shanghai Port, last season's double champion, also reconvening for winter training. For Shanghai Port, the task of strengthening the team during this offseason is quite arduous, especially as they have lost two key foreign players, Oscar and Balagas, which has had a significant impact on their overall strength. Therefore, reinforcing the foreign player lineup is of utmost importance. In addition to this offseason, Shanghai Port also attaches great importance to the reinforcement of domestic players. Due to the older age of the team's local main players, the team urgently needs to inject fresh blood. Recently, Shanghai Port has received good news in terms of domestic player reinforcements. According to informed sources, Shanghai Port has locked down 23-year-old forward national team player Tao Qianglong, who will become a member of Shanghai Port in the new season. Tao Qianglong's joining can help enhance the team's offensive capabilities and also alleviate some of the pressure on Wu Lei. Tao Qianglong can be considered a young prodigy, having made his debut in the Chinese Super League at the age of 17. He possesses excellent speed and dribbling ability, which was quite impressive when he first appeared. He was once hailed as the future star of Chinese football. However, early fame also brought him immense pressure, causing his growth trajectory to not fully meet external expectations. His development has not yet reached its potential, but despite this, Tao Qianglong remains one of the outstanding players among domestic players of the same…
